I’m still exhausted from the PR trip and it has been four days. There is only one solution for this problem - AC. Thank goodness Heather is in town this weekend.

Celebrating Jesus at the Casino

13 April, 2008 (21:10) | i like gambling, i like poker, i hate everything | No comments

Easter weekend was surprisingly light in AC. I guess there are more devout C&E Catholics here than I expected.
I headed out once again with the same couple I went with on Chinese New Year. At the last minute, they talked a friend into going and driving with us. Now I’m not one to envy cars, […]

Chinese New Year’ed

16 February, 2008 (02:06) | i like gambling, i like poker | No comments

Or alternatively titled, “AC by way of Philadelphia”.
For my Chinese New Year AC trip I hooked up with some friends from work who happened to be going as well, which was awesome because they let me stay in their room on Saturday night so I didn’t have to suffer the late night Saturday bus ride […]

Lake Tahoe x-mas

7 January, 2008 (22:47) | i like gambling, i like poker, from the road | No comments

Oh yeah, I went to Lake Tahoe for x-mas. It is absolutely gorgeous there as you can see. I went with Jason, Balki, and Ezra. Here’s the trip in notable quotes:
“You are a bottle of jack away from closing that deal.”
“You need to start having sex with strangers.”
“I am a serial monogamist.”
“No […]

Craps for poker players

15 September, 2007 (14:23) | i like gambling, i like poker, i hate everything | No comments

I play a lot of craps. If I start playing craps and I’m winning (or within a reasonable amount of losses) I’d rather keep playing than change games to get some poker in.
The Borgata is currently holding a big poker tournament (WPT Poker Open). To catch some of the action walking out of the poker […]

Viva Las Vegas

26 June, 2007 (23:09) | i like gambling | No comments

Kat and I made it out to Las Vegas for the first time in forever (Dec. 2005 to be exact) for a wedding. Everyone was already staying at the Flamingo, so we decided to stay at the same hotel as the rest of the group. Jim and Adrienne were coming to the wedding too […]

AC - the long road to diamond status

12 June, 2007 (07:59) | i like gambling | No comments

It is finally over.
I’ve been going to Caesar’s AC in order to work my way up to diamond status in the Harrah’s rewards program for the better part of this year. Yesterday, I finally made it. What does this mean for me? No more waiting in the loser line at the buffet or at the […]

AC Slater and Friends

12 May, 2007 (01:32) | i like gambling, i like poker | No comments

Another abandoned post, this time definitely from April 29th.
Last weekend I returned to AC with a clusterfuck of friends. Nine people total celebrating the end of bachelorhood for a friend. This was my first bachelor party, ever. I’ve always found the idea of them to be odd. Really, if I’m going to be married I […]

AC - the two day adventure

12 May, 2007 (01:31) | i like gambling, i like poker | No comments

I should really put dates on these blog posts when I start writing them, because it always takes me so long to get them out of the phone and onto my blog because I completely forget about them for weeks. I believe I wrote this on Sunday April 22nd. I can’t be positive.
I […]

broccoli

25 March, 2007 (21:09) | i like gambling, i hate everything | No comments

I hate broccoli. I consider it to be one of the most disgusting food items. Unfortunately I have bad broccoli karma.
When my boss told me I was going to be moving desks to be closer to my group, I was excited. I would have left the company on the spot if he would have told […]
